74FCT16244LBCTPA

Overview

The IDT 74FCT16244LBCTPA is a 16-bit buffer and line driver manufactured by Integrated Device Technology. It utilizes Fast CMOS technology to provide high-speed performance with low power consumption, serving as a replacement for older ABT logic functions. The device features non-inverting outputs with three-state capability, allowing for effective bus driving and signal buffering in digital systems.

Feature Summary

• High-speed operation enabled by 0.5 micron CMOS technology
• Low input and output leakage characteristics
• Power-off disable feature supporting live insertion applications

Applications

• Digital signal processing systems
• Data transmission interfaces
• Bus buffering and line driving

Procurement Notes

Verify the manufacturer origin, as IDT products are now under Renesas Electronics. Confirm the specific suffix 'LBCTPA' matches your design requirements against official datasheets. Ensure the component is genuine and factory-sealed to avoid counterfeit risks associated with legacy logic parts.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 16-bit non-inverting buffer with three-state outputs is required. It is suitable for designs needing high drive strength and low skew. Consider the TSSOP-48 package availability and ensure voltage levels match the 4.5V to 5.5V operating range specified for the FCT family.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 74FCT series of high-speed CMOS logic devices. It is functionally similar to other variants like the 74FCT16244CTPAG8 but may differ in packaging or specific electrical parameters. The series is designed for applications requiring fast switching speeds and low power dissipation compared to standard TTL or earlier CMOS families.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct equivalents such as the 74FCT16244CTPAG8 from Renesas. Verify pin compatibility and electrical specifications before substitution. Other FCT family members may serve as alternatives if functional requirements align.
